Description

This textbook makes the case for a radical approach to social work that can be embraced by everyone. It's an approach based on real empathy and an understanding of oppression, managerialism, and the moral heart of social work.

Jane Fenton provides a model of radical practice for students and social workers who are committed to 'doing the right thing' and want to develop their own framework for practice. This book will appeal to those seeking a meaningful way to frame individual-level practice, whether as an activist or simply as a good social worker.

It offers a political and moral understanding of social work practice, leading to confident, value-based, and enjoyable social work.
